Objective:To study the diuetic effects and its mechanism of Guiling Shenzhu decoction and its different effective parts.Method:The effect on urinre volum and urinary electrolyte(Na+
K+
Cl-) were assessed by using rat metabolic cage and electrolyte analyzer following oral administration of Guiling Shenzhu decoction(10.0
5.0
2.5 g·kg-1) and its different polar fractions(10
5.0
2.5 g·kg-1).Result:Guiling Shenzhu decoction(5.0
2.5 g·kg-1) and extraction of ethyl acetate(5.0 g·kg-1) and residual water layer(5.0 g·kg-1) had good diuretic effect.The urine K+ excretion increased significantly
but Na+ and Cl-excretion did not increase.Conclusion:Guiling Shenzhu decoction and extraction of ethyl acetate and residual water layer have significant and persistent diuretic effect.They cause marked increase in urinary K+level and it may be the diuetic mechanism.
